Warranty and repair policy
Warranty coverage and exclusionsShow detailsHide details
Completed standard repairs include a 6-month warranty covering the replacement part and labour.
If a device has previous liquid damage and needs a different repair, only the part repaired or replaced in this visit is covered, not the whole device.
- a new drop or impact
- new or repeated liquid exposure
- misuse or accidental damage
- third-party opening, repair or modification
- a new unrelated fault
No Fix, No Charge detailsShow detailsHide details
If a diagnosed component is replaced and tested but does not resolve the fault, there is no charge. This also applies if added faults are found, or if the final price is higher than advised and you choose not to continue. For an unsuccessful repair, we do not charge for the repair attempt, a specially ordered part or a deposit already paid.
Inspection, repair or replacementShow detailsHide details
An inspection or disassembly fee can apply only when it is clearly disclosed and approved before work starts.
Repair can mean board-level or component-level work; replacement means directly replacing a component, not the whole phone. The right path depends on inspection. We generally prefer component replacement because board-repair labour can cost more, then explain the options before work begins.

Ali Mobile support
Why choose Ali Mobile for OPPO A5 (2020) front camera replacement
Front camera faults can overlap with the top sensor area and other paired components, so Ali Mobile checks the front camera path carefully before confirming whether replacement is the right scope. Customers can walk in to our Ringwood Square store, book online, or contact the store before visiting.

Selfie and portrait-camera diagnosis
- We check selfie preview, portrait-camera response, blur, image failure, and front-facing camera behaviour before confirming the repair path.
Top sensor-area inspection first
- Impact near the earpiece and top sensor area is inspected before work begins.
- Front camera replacement does not automatically guarantee every top sensor-area function will be restored because paired or separate components may also be involved.
Clear limitations and retesting
- After repair we retest the main front-facing camera functions linked to the repair area and explain any remaining limitation clearly before handover.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will a new front camera fix blurry selfies?
Yes, if the blur is caused by a failing sensor or internal lens damage. However, if the screen glass over the camera is shattered, you may need a screen replacement instead.
Do you replace the screen as part of the camera repair?
No, they are separate components. If both are damaged, they require separate replacements.
Does this repair restore facial recognition?
We replace the camera module, but we do not make biometric restoration claims as these systems often rely on secure enclave pairing which cannot always be restored by third-party repairs.
How long does a front camera replacement take?
The repair usually takes about approximately 45 to 60 minutes, subject to part availability and device condition once the part is available.
Is the new camera the same quality?
We use high-quality replacement modules designed to match the original specifications of your device.
Will I lose my photos?
No, replacing the camera module does not delete your stored photos or data. A backup is always recommended.
